Manchester United have reignited their interest in signing Villarreal defender Pau Torresahead of the summer transfer window, according to the Manchester Evening News.
United intend to sign another centre-back this summer, with Torres back on their radar a year after he was considered under their previous regime.
The 25-year-old central defender – who has a release clause of around €60m - was identified as United's back-up option last year during their successful pursuit of Raphael Varane from Real Madrid.
Torres is understood to be open to offers at the end of the season, although he is in no rush to leave Villarreal as his main focus is on a strong end to the season with his boyhood club. He has played every minute of their run to the semi-finals of the Champions League.
